Description
The Valenro is a 1000mm circular chandelier built around a wide brushed brass ring, with 40 cylindrical natural Spanish alabaster shades arranged in two tiers around the perimeter. Each shade houses a G4 bulb (sold separately), and the ring is suspended from a 300mm brass drop rod and matching ceiling canopy. The total fitting height is 460mm including the rod.
This is a large-scale fitting designed for high-ceilinged rooms: double-height entrance halls, open-plan living spaces, formal dining rooms above a long table, and stairwell voids where the chandelier is viewed from multiple levels. With a 1m diameter the Valenro suits rooms of approximately 5m x 5m or larger, and ceiling heights from 3m upwards. The radial geometry reads cleanly from below and from oblique angles, which makes it well suited to spaces with mezzanines or galleries.
The 40 alabaster cylinders are cut from solid Spanish stone, so each one carries its own veining and tonal variation when lit. The shades are arranged in an offset two-tier pattern around the brass ring, which spreads the light source across a wider visual field than a single-row chandelier and softens the overall glow. The brushed brass frame and rod are finished to coordinate with warm metallic fixtures elsewhere in the room without the high reflectivity of polished brass.
The G4 capsule format keeps each individual light source small relative to the alabaster shade, so the stone itself becomes the visible diffuser rather than the bulb. Forty G4 lamps at typical 1.5-2W LED ratings give a combined output suitable for primary room lighting in larger spaces, and the capsule format is widely available in 2700K and 3000K warm-white temperatures.

Frequently Asked
What bulbs does the Valenro take?
The chandelier takes 40 x G4 capsule bulbs (sold separately). G4 LED capsules in 1.5-2W are widely available in 2700K and 3000K warm-white, and these are the most common pairing for an alabaster fitting where you want the stone itself to glow.
What ceiling height does it need?
The fitting is 460mm tall including the 300mm drop rod, so it suits ceiling heights of 3m and above. With a 1m diameter the chandelier reads best in rooms of around 5m x 5m or larger, in stairwells, double-height halls, and over long dining tables.
Does the alabaster vary between shades?
Yes. Each of the 40 cylinders is cut from natural Spanish alabaster, so veining, tonal variation and translucency differ between individual shades. When lit, this produces a layered glow rather than a uniform one, and is a feature of the natural material.
Is the drop rod adjustable?
The supplied rod is 300mm. The total drop from ceiling to the underside of the alabaster shades is approximately 460mm. For taller rooms or stairwells where a longer drop is needed, please contact us before ordering to discuss extension options.
